I am on Day 10 of 14 of my liquid pre-op diet. I have to say it has been a little hard at times, but not what I thought. That is until today.. I ran to post office (before I ate lunch) for work, and I was so hungry. All it took was one smell of Mc D's salty crispy French fries, and I cheated. I let myself down, and indulged. 1 day before my pre-op appt. What the heck was I thinking. I have some scared feeling in my mind the Dr. will know the minute I walk in. I have lost 13.8 lbs so far, but I just know that value meal is going to give me away like the metal detector in the airport if you were smuggling something dangerous in.

From my understanding, the pre-op diet is to remove fat from the liver so that the surgery is easier for the surgeon. I wouldn't worry about it. I would be proud of the 14 pounds in 10 days!!!!!

Good job on your weightloss so far! I would just drink some extra Water to wash out the salt and immediately return to the liquid diet.

I don't go anywhere without my cooler of 3 protein shakes and 3 bottles of water in ice... it's kept on my hump behind the drivers seat...
